Analysis of Conserved Glutamate and Aspartate Residues in Drosophila Rhodopsin 1 and Their Influence on Spectral Tuning

The molecular mechanisms that regulate invertebrate visual pigment absorption are poorly understood. Studies of amphioxus G(o)-opsin have demonstrated that Glu-181 functions as the counterion in this pigment. This finding has led to the proposal that Glu-181 may function as the counterion in other i...
